Fact Check: Did Bill Nye Tell A Huge Lie About the Fossil Layers? - thetruthwins.com
Excerpt from this article:
"Did you get a chance to see the debate between Ken Ham and Bill Nye 'the Science Guy' the other night? It was definitely entertaining.
Unfortunately, it didn’t do much to clarify the issues that millions of
Americans tuned in to learn more about. In fact, viewers got a lot of
information from Bill Nye that simply is not true. For example, Bill
Nye made it sound like science has discovered fossil layers all over the
earth that are neatly stacked on top of one another with less evolved
creatures in the earlier layers and more advanced creatures in the upper
layers. He also made the incredible claim that you cannot find a
single fossil which is in the wrong layer. This is such an elementary
mistake, and exhibits such a complete ignorance of what the fossil
record actually shows, that he should have been laughed off the stage.
This is exactly the kind of extreme anti-intellectualism that Nye was
supposedly trying to warn people about. Sadly, our society has been so 'dumbed down' that there are lots of people out there that will actually
believe him."
